The Beatles and the Beatlesque address a paradox emanating from The
Beatles’ music through a cross-disciplinary hybrid of
reflections, drawing from both, musical practice itself and
academic research. Indeed, despite their extreme stylistic variety,
The Beatles’ songs seem to always bear a distinctive identity
that emerges even more in similar works by other artists, whether
they are merely inspired, derivative or explicitly paying
homage. The authors, a musicologist and music producer,
emphasize the importance of record production in The Beatles' music
in a way that does justice not only to the final artifacts (the
released songs) but also to the creative process itself (i.e., the
songs "in the making"). Through an investigation into the work of
George Martin and his team, as well as The Beatles themselves, this
text sheds light on the role of the studio in shaping the group's
eclectic but unique sound. The chapters address what makes a
song “Beatlesque”, to what extent production choices are
responsible for developing a style, production being understood not
as a mere set of technicalities, but also in a more conceptual way,
as well as the aesthetics, semiotics and philosophy that animated
studio activity. The outcome is a book that will appeal to both
students and researchers, as well as, of course, musicophiles of
all kinds.
